Ay up all,

Is there a site you can go to to find out what psi I should be running in my RP23 fox shock. I have other bikes with older fox shocks so would like to know if the same pressure should be run in them as well.:D

It will vary with the bike. Aim for the first 25% of the travel to be taken up with sag when you sit on it. That's what the O-ring on the shaft is there to tell you.

Fox have a fantastic website which has a great video on setting up your sag. Hawkins is right re the 25% thing and that of course will depend on your bike and your weight. If you continue to adjust the air until you get 25% you're laughing.... alternatively go and have a look at their website, it's a ripper.
